>Dear Friends of NCSE,
>
>Unlocking the Mystery of Life, a documentary about the ìintelligent
>designî movement cowritten by Stephen C. Meyer, Director and Senior
>Fellow of the Center for Science and Culture at the Discovery
>Institute, is airing on individual PBS stations across the country.
>
>Because NCSE has received many inquiries about Unlocking, we have
>added a section to our web site for information and opinions about
>it:
>http://www.ncseweb.org/article.asp?category=19
>Articles in this section are the opinions of the authors and not
>necessarily those of NCSE.
>
>The first entry is a letter to Maryland Public Television, which
>aired Unlocking on June 10, from Daryl Domning, Professor of Anatomy
>at Howard Universityís School of Medicine. Domning writes, "Although
>this program was presented as a science documentary, in fact it was
>no more than an elaborate infomercial for 'intelligent design'
>creationism (ID)."
>
>The second entry is from NCSE's Network Project Director Skip Evans,
>who documents the links between Unlocking's producer, Illustra
>Media, and Discovery Media, whose stated mission is to "utilize
>every form of available media to present the reality of [Godís]
>existence through compelling scientific evidence and academic
>research."
>
>And the final entry is a brief news article about Unlocking by
>Robert Park, professor of physics at the University of Maryland,
>Director of the Washington Office of the American Physical Society,
>and author of the American Physical Societyís popular "What's New"
>column. Park's critique is reposted, with his permission, from
>"What's New" for June 13, 2003.
>
>NCSE will announce further additions to the Unlocking section as they appear.
>
>Sincerely,
